Perk $10: Joe Biden will slam a Coor's Lite in your honor while ripping the sleeves off of his button-down. (Need a description) - Was thinking of, "Not really, but if there is enough interest, maybe we can convince Uncle Joe to chug a beer in your honor. Pictures to be posted all over the internet, of course."

Any more?

Perk $50- your name inscribed on a cassette of Night Ranger to be included with the vehicle (limit 10).

Is this feasible?

Well, maybe a CD. A cassette would be hard to find. And by "inscribed" I had in mind a label or something like that. I mean, this is all for fun anyway, the perks should reflect the silliness.

True. Maybe we could get a mix-tape/cassette of songs from the year the trans-am was made. Limit it to like 50?

Gotta be careful about copyright; I think we should only include purchased CDs, maybe a "greatest hits" collection of some of the artists of the time in line with the theme. The perk could be having your name included in a liner insert along with the CD?

Just remember, any cassette left in a car for over a month turns into "Best of Queen."

Stay on point here people. This gesture is not about who Joe Biden really is, it's about who we (the internet) want to believe he is. A Trans Am driving, beer chugging, bad ass that devours debate opponents and celebrates by having anal with his wife.

BraveNewCheneyWorld:Because people who are suddenly motivated to donate to charity because it's mildly amusing in a round about way are the people who get it? Yeah, great that you're finally doing something, but if it's because this amuses you, you're really the one missing the point

You should start a charity to raise awareness for people tragically stranded atop high horses.

My official response to any current or future haters: I am so sorry you are offended by my charitable contribution to wounded combat veterans because I made it in Joe Biden's name. You can always negate my donation by sending $10 to the Taliban, and credit Dick Cheney.

I didn't watch the stage-managed bullshiatfest, but I gather Biden was douchey enough to make it a competitive douche-off. I mean, if the other team brings the extra-strength douche like Romney did last time, you gotta bring some of your own, otherwise, they douche all over you and make you look weak.

This suggests an awesome web video someone needs to make now: The Professor and the Douche.

Obama and Biden ride around the country in Biden's Trans-Am. Obama bores people with detailed explanations of his policies while Biden mugs and hits on all the ladies.

You can see why the conservatives on this page are so bent out of shape about this idea though: if this current administration is comes to be viewed as a pasty white shirtless guy washing a Trans-Am on his lawn, Obama might steal away some of their base.

it has to be the redneck camaro/trans am: at least three different colors, bondo in spots, duct tape on seats, colored cellophane tape for taillights, one of the doors won't open, mismatched rims and a tape deck with an Iron Maiden tape stuck in it on play.

He must also use some version of the phrase "i'm workin on fixin her up"

legalgus:If you contribute look in a mirror and say "a fool" and his money are soon parted. Carry on fools. I'd rather buy a bum a beer. Hey, maybe ya'll can offer the bum a beer.

Warning, all of you good souls who have chipped in 5 dollars, your 5 dollars might get stolen! We know this will crush you for the rest of your life, and is the difference between whether the world continues to spin! Instead, you should never take a chance on anything, especially if it appears completely legit, and you can pretty much figure out who the people involved are. Do no good deeds if there's a chance anything might ever go wrong! Instead, encourage people without homes to continue with their addictions to drugs and alcohol, this is the true and moral path!

I'll give MY goddamn money to anything or anyone I want. If it doesn't meet YOUR tiny penis' needs, well too farkin bad.

Hey dude, if you'd have had a better lawyer, you wouldn't have had to do so much community service.

Unfortunately, not everything on the internet is true, no matter what the internet tries to tell you. Over the past four years one of the internet's favorite political meme's is of "Uncle Joe Biden." It started with an Onion article (http://www.theonion.com/articles/shirtless-biden-washes-trans-am-in-w hite-house-dri,2718/) which poked fun at the Vice President because of his blue collar mannerisms and forthright speech when discussing...well...anything.

Joe Biden has made a career about speaking what he means, regardless if it is in his best political interest or if it is the "politically correct" thing to say. Because of this he endures jokes regarding his "gaffes" and verbal miscues and America (and some of the rest of the world) laugh and chuckle about this homer Vice President of ours.

All the while, Joe Biden has calmly and quietly been an incredible Vice President. He was one of the first politicians to publicly embrace gay marriage (http://articles.latimes.com/2012/may/06/nation/la-na-biden-gay-marria ge-20120507) and may have been personally responsible for President Obama coming out in favor of gay marriage and the subsequent change in the Democratic Party's platform.

In order to let Vice President Biden know just how much we appreciate them, while also making a very silly part of the internet come true (we are the internet after all); let's buy Uncle Joe a Trans Am like one that is featured in the Onion article linked to above. It's hilarious, it's awesome and gosh darnit, it's something that we can talk about in addition to the cat pictures and rage comics.

Now, if for some reason this awesome gift is too awesome and cannot be given to Vice President Biden, the internet will still purchase the car and auction it off.

All proceeds will be distributed to the Biden Breast Health Initiative, Doctors Without Borders, the Wounded Warrior Project and GLAAD.

Regardless if it is to Joe Biden or to charity, maybe Joe Biden will even wash it on the White House lawn.

**Im wondering if we should just do this straight up for charity....I sincerely doubt he'll be able to accept it.

Anyone who donates a nickle towards this shiat deserves to be drug through the streets naked behind the Trans Am while Betty White drives it to the farmers market.

Im amazed anyone can think of biden as anything besides the crotchy old fossil he came off as last night, he wasnt aggressive or pointing out policies he was acting like the boss who never listens but takes credit when things go right.

In short he was a douche and people who refuse to see that are farking retarded. Go read Foucalt, people need to see that can apply to either side not just right wing nut bags...........

I'd appreciate if a new youtube account was created and the video posted there. You can pull it down from Youtube, RichieLaw?

Why dont you create one and then email me the new link or post it here so I can upload it. I am away from a computer at the moment and am on my mobile. I can manage the youtube as well if you like. Just shoot me the pw and sn. Joebidenstransam at gmail.com

The stories I will have for my grand-kids: As a boy I watched as Neil Armstrong walked on the Moon. As an adult I watched us elect our first Black President. And today, I helped buy the Vice-President a Trans-Am.

Dressed in a slightly ripped Lynyrd Skynyrd T-shirt, Biden tapped the top of an Icehouse tallboy, cracked it open, and then informed the 20,000 people in attendance that while the economy is no longer hemorrhaging jobs as it was in 2008, nothing, "not even that little trip I took to Thailand in '92," could ever live up to the unforgettable months of June through August 1987, when "the skirts were short, the brews were cold, and you couldn't walk 2 feet without stepping into some grade-A tang."

tony41454:Biden was a jerk. Acted like some crazed Uncle off his meds. Lost a lot of votes with his laughing and sneers (especially at inappropriate times) and his lies. This means he LOST the debate. Doesn't matter how you came across, if you lose votes, you lose!

You win the "not paying attention to anything going on here" award for the hour. Well done champ!

special20:mcwehrle: Or, when you rack up 120+ hours a year for Habitat for Humanity, give generously to the American Cancer Society, Children's Home (time and cash there for me), Red Cross (cash and platelets 3X a month), March of Dimes, Easter Seals (time and money) and the other six or so humanitarian things I do every month, every week, all year for the last 25+ years, and provide PROOF, because I CAN, you can threadshiat with your drivel all you want, Until then STFU and GTFO.

IronTom:How appropriate. This administration caused Pontiac to close down with all their interference. Now the old guy can only get an old one of there are enough losers to send him money for being a dork.

Absolutely. It was the administration that sunk Pontiac. Not the fact that Pontiac cars were so disposable, at one point they came in a roll with perforations so that you could tear your next Sunfire off and have a clean edge.

Cyclometh:Personally, I love the idea. Upthread I suggested that once the vehicle is acquired we get a veteran or wounded warrior to drive it to DC. I think it certainly couldn't hurt to ask- probably best if the guy who holds the keys to the indiegogo site does the asking, though. I'll tweet some stuff to @JoeBiden and mention it.

How about a wounded lesbian medic who's in a high-risk group for breast cancer? :D

God, the insane teeth-gnashing this is causing from the teabaggers is f*cking AWESOME. And on top of that, they come off as charity-hating assholes to boot.

Just...so...perfect.

/for future reference, freepers, the correct face-saving reaction would have been "yeah, haha, f*ck you, but here's $5 for the charity"//but watching you dig a giant hole of sh*t for yourselves is definitely more entertaining, so carry on

You're just so butthurt. It's amazing. A bunch of liberals grabbed their bootstraps and in under four hours went from a random thread posted to over 1200 dollars raised for charity, and on the way to more than 20 times that amount.

Yea, well I have a fund to help me buy copious amounts of blow and rent a 1/2 dozen hookers this weekend. Without my blow purchase some drug dealer won't be able to buy a new gun and some poor hookers will be short a sale. Why do you hate America?

You're just a farking fark.

You fetid cockpotato. I have a campaign to help me buy a starving child and 1/2 dozen Joe Paterno figurines. Without my purchase some overweight housewife who smells of sour milk and desperation won't be able to buy that log of Velveeta to overfeed her six children. Why do you hate fat women?

Duke Phillips' Singing Bears:Why all the anger? It's a fun idea. If you like Joe, there's no reason not to have some fun. If it bothers you so much, start your own donation page to buy Romney a f*cking personality or something.

I'm pretty sure Biden will get a kick out of this when he hears about it. He'll most likely graciously ask the money be sent directly to the Charities instead of buying a car to give him, the auction off, but in the end, no matter what, it's going for a good cause. You have my $5... and my axe... and my bow...

Whoosh. That's why this idea is brilliant. It shows our complete disregard for reality. But please send your $5 to Komen because apparently there are still eight or nine people in the US who are not yet "aware" of breast cancer.

Normally I'd berate you for such a word salad. But given the glad tidings of this thread, I am internet high-fiving you for such an awesome and unorthodox display of English that I've seen since the last time I heard Bush Jr. speak.

Cyclometh:kumanoki: Cyclometh: Richie, I love the text. Is someone willing to set that to a video with a dramatic "movie trailer guy" voiceover? Because I want to record a reading of that- I can do the voice part but video is not my strong suit.

Joe Biden loved his Trans Am. As soon as it reached about 40 degrees, in Scranton, PA. Ole Joe would pull the cover off of his beloved beauty and spend hours detailing her immaculate curves. He'd often be overheard murmuring how sweet his,"Bird" was, which was in complete opposite to his normally gruff demeanor. It also made certain Senate Foreign Relations Committee meetings very awkward.Senator Biden, now Vice President Biden, was always known for his fiery and passionate speech and mannerisms. But when he looked at the Bird, he'd hitch up his jorts, rip off of his shirt sleeves and chug a sixer of Ice House. It was love.

Then came the Great Recession. Biden tried to maintain his Trans AM through 2009, but with the soaring gas prices and the Republican's pressure to destroy everything that was General Motors, he was unable to do so. He sold it to a young man about to go to war in Iraq. There were tears in his eyes when he gave the Bird away. But he knew she would be in a better place.

Unfortunately, not everything on the internet is true, no matter what the internet tries to tell you. Over the past four years one of the internet's favorite political meme's is of "Uncle Joe Biden." It started with an Onion article (http://www.theonion.com/articles/shirtless-biden-washes-trans-am-in-w hite-house-dri,2718/) which poked fun at the Vice President because of his blue collar mannerisms and forthright speech when discussing...well...anything.

Would it be possible for us to go through Colbert SuperPac and get this protected as political speech? I'm sure the guys on Colbert's crew would love to do something like this, especially as Stephen has a real heart for charity.

Can you imagine: "Mr. Vice President, the citizens of the internet would like your blessing to donate this Trans-Am in your honor. They only ask that you pose with it holding an Icehouse Tallboy while shirtless."

Prohibited uses:No charity or cause funding.Examples of prohibited use include raising money for the Red Cross, funding an awareness campaign, funding a scholarship, or promoting the donation of funds raised, or future profits, to a charity or cause.

It is NOT charity - it is PROTECTED POLITICAL SPEECH.

We want this to happen because we want to see what the public perception/reaction will be. This is political theater. This is protected by the goddam bullshiat Citizens United ruling. We could buy the car in the name of the Joe Biden Is A Regular Guy Media Manipulation Trust, which could then "give" the car to Biden in accordance with its to-be-written trust instruments. IF he can't accept it, then the trust either gives the car to some non-profit or sells it and gives the money away. Or Biden could take the car after he leaves government service, maybe. But if we call the car, and the giving of the car, "political advertising" then we should be in the clear and even if we're not it could make an interesting legal shiat-storm.

Fluorescent Testicle:If we're going for the multiple-charity route, perhaps make it four and add in a gay rights charity? I figure it's easier to split about $20k four ways than three, and it was Biden's comments that opened the flood gates there.

(1) you must sux at math...lol(2) Let's go all the way with it. Buy a trans-am for a disabled, lesbian medic war-vet who work with doctors without borders and won her battle with breast cancer and have Joe sign it!

I have the amount for $25k. Enough to purchase the car, pay applicable taxes and then transport it wherever it needs to go.

Also. Short description has been updated:

Help us raise $25 thousand dollars to buy Joe Biden a gift from the American people as awesome as he is... a vintage Pontiac Trans Am.

Now, if for some reason this awesome gift is too awesome for pesky laws and other unknown political reasons and Uncle Joe has to remain Trans Am-less, the internet will still purchase the car and auction it off.

Awesome. Just awesome. We have raised close to one fifth of our total goal in about 12 hours. Everyone that has contributed should feel immensely proud. I expect a lull over the weekend but will discuss hitting social and print media hard on Monday. If you have contacts in any type of media please forward them the indiegogo page and youtube video. We will be preparing a press release for Monday to go out to local and national media. I know some people who have media relations experience have volunteered their time. If still available, please submit a draft press release to me (joebidenstransam at the gmail) no later than 8 p.m.on Sunday.

Again, thank you to everyone in this thread. You have either contributed your time, support or money to this cause. We literally could not do this without you.

As soon as i finish reading the thread, you will be getting some BIE. Please pass along to Hack Patooey, cyclometh and coyagie(sp?)

Sent :)

You know, even some of us lesser contributors like a BIE from time to time. How about a little sumpin sumpin for a rhino?

My phone's being a coont and won't let me into my photos :( i had to go digging thru emails to keep my promise tht i made before knowing my phone was being stupid.

That being said, if RichieLaw feels like forwarding to you, he's welcome to.

I think I'm done for the night but I will definitely be back tomorrow with more donations. Seeing the incredible anal devastation that this is bringing the teabaggers and Fark Independents is giving me the biggest hard on for hitting that "contribute" button.

{Intro - Dramatic Music}I went to Yahoo.com and read the comments. I thought...I really thought I could help. But there was too much derp. I posted left, right, then back again. But the derp and the herp kept coming. I got off maybe 20 posts, and each one was a kill, but they never went down! They didn't stop! The brainless herpzombies clawed their way through any logic or compassion or the just plain humanity of givejoethebird.com I could shove in their way. I just couldn't stand it any more and ran like hell. I apologize, and I understand if you want to court marshal me for it. But there was nothing I could do - I was overwhelmed. I just hope this testament will help future people tasked with venturing into that unholy place. Tell my mother that I love her.

Anyone who donates a nickle towards this shiat deserves to be drug through the streets naked behind the Trans Am while Betty White drives it to the farmers market.

By the way- I'm usually quite snarky and can be a real jerk here on Fark- that's not who I really am in real life but I come here because I can hang around with other snarky jerks. Today, we've done something very cool and you've broken through my snarky jerk facade to expose the snarky jerk underneath.

In all seriousness, you're all awesome- thanks for making this happen!

No kidding. Money doubled to over 4K while I was gone. Freaking amazing

Awesome job Hack, How do you think we can get the next 4K?

I have no clue. This would have not happened if RichieLaw hadnt set up the site, nor everyone else in the thread throwing ideas in the pot. Organizing this kind of stuff is way beyond my comfort zone...

I hear if he is re-elected, Joe will do a reunion tour with the Joe Biden Band. I can't wait for the new album, "White House of Funk." I'm waiting for their new singles, "Pucker Up And Kiss My Ass (Ryan's Song)" and "Malarkey Means You're Full of shiat."

BraveNewCheneyWorld:Yeah, he did a decent job in the debate, right after Obama was rated as doing a poor job in the debate (personally, I think Obama won the debate because I care about what people say rather than how they say it).. and now you're passing out the collection basket to buy him a car? For what? What the hell is wrong with you people?

Holy Carp:I just posted to facebook. Is there a reddit thread i should upvote? Will drew or the modmins let reddit links be allowed for this, on this thread? Sorry if it's a repeat, I read the thread up till 5, then spent a couple of hourswith my 2 yo daughter.

So far, the highest upvoted Reddit thread is *ahem* mine *ahem* over in r/nottheonion here Link

I just want to say that I love you Farkers. I mostly lurk on this site, but you've provided me with countless hours of entertainment, and for that I'm grateful.

That said, for me this really tops it off (I missed the Romero charity drive). So I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who contributed (I'm pleased with the causes they're donating to) and to everyone who is posting in this thread. Even the trolls/people who disagree with this.

Almost Everybody Poops:SuperTran: BraveNewCheneyWorld: Yeah, he did a decent job in the debate, right after Obama was rated as doing a poor job in the debate (personally, I think Obama won the debate because I care about what people say rather than how they say it).. and now you're passing out the collection basket to buy him a car? For what? What the hell is wrong with you people?

It really has nothing to to with the debate itself, just that it's a prime opportunity to make an Onion headline come true and send all the money to charity in the end.

Really? Because I have a hard time differentiating between reality and Onion articles these days.

And a picture of the real Joe Biden washing his new Trans Am in the White House driveway will be identical to the Onion Joe Biden washing his Trans Am in the White House driveway... and then the timelines shall converge into one, and then we shall know that the Apocolypse is surely upon us.

We're Farkers. And probably drunk.

If you don't get why this is happening, buy a lawn and get off the Internet.

GhostFish:I'm sure someone else has already pointed out what a waste this is.Likewise, I'm sure someone else has pointed out that 20 grand would be better going to the campaign, or better yet a charity.

So I won't be a Debby Downer, and I'll resist the urge to say as much.

Ricardo Klement:Karma Curmudgeon: If the Republicans can't put aside the derp long enough to contribute to internet infamy, perhaps they can at least let us have the sticks up their asses so we can have a bonfire.

Counter_Intelligent:FitzShivering: Mebbe a smaller image without your permanent bookmarks or full name from Facebook is in order :D

It could be worse. A tab labeled "FurAffinity" could be showing.

I sent a screenshot to former coworkers for a bit of training that had "how to deal with an insane owner" in the search bar up top, and had a bunch of tabs open. Fortunately, the insane owner never noticed, no one told her, and I'm pretty sure Fark added a few new members, judging by how that location's productivity dropped over the next few months.

special20:Mercutio74: extroverted_suicide: He went back and designed the Pontiac Aztek.

Liar! No one designed the Pontiac Aztek. It was created by accident when a custodian accidentally began to shred a concept drawing. Luckily it was rescued before all the paper was fed into the shredder.

/CSB: It was designed to have lovely tail fins originally

That Aztec had to be the ugliest car ever crapped out by Michigan. I looked like a capybara with wheels.(what a capybara may look like)[bunkstrutts.files.wordpress.com image 700x540]

Step 1) Read the original Onion article about Joe and his Trans Am.Step 2) Imagine Joe Biden actually washing a white 1981 Pontiac Trans Am (Daytona 500 Pace Car Edition, with custom gold snowflake wheels), shirtless, on the White House groundsStep 3) Know that you helped make that moment happenStep 4) Know that you also helped out a number of good charities

If these steps don't work, then you're just never going to get it. Sorry. Some people love the (completely fake) legend of Chuck Norris. Some don't. Same thing with this.

IronTechV1:IronTom: How appropriate. This administration caused Pontiac to close down with all their interference. Now the old guy can only get an old one of there are enough losers to send him money for being a dork.

And here I thought it was simply because the brand had already been slowly disappearing for a decade. Crazy me.

Once again, Obama's magical time machine. He went back and designed the Pontiac Aztek.

RussianPooper:kimwim: Girion47: Automatic is the AOL of the auto world.

I second this. Stick is the only way to go.

Except automatic is far more ubiquitous than AOL by a long shot. More like the Google of the auto world. It's getting more and more difficult to find manual transmission cars, especially since the newer automatics work much better and sometimes have controllers for changing gears manually but without a clutch.

I smarted you because of your most awesomely correct use of ubiquitous.

I grew up in a blue-collar family. One of the things I like about Joe is that he reminds me of some of the cooler old New England guys my father used to know. Big heart, human, sense of humor, level, scrappy, stands up for what he thinks is right. Getting some money to a charity in his name is pretty easy.

IronTom:Mercutio74: IronTom: How appropriate. This administration caused Pontiac to close down with all their interference. Now the old guy can only get an old one of there are enough losers to send him money for being a dork.

Absolutely. It was the administration that sunk Pontiac. Not the fact that Pontiac cars were so disposable, at one point they came in a roll with perforations so that you could tear your next Sunfire off and have a clean edge.

I loved Pontiac. I loved Saturn also. I blame Obama and his little Biden guy that they are no longer in business. Nothing like the government taking over your business.

I blame male models for getting rid of the bell bottom. I loved bell bottoms.

Kit Fister: DUMMIES BUYING CAR FOR BIDEN ARE STOOPID, WARRAGH! NOT GIVING TO CHARITIES *I* WANT TO SEE HERE ON FARK! WARRAGH!

So go start a thread for a good cause. We'd donate. Or maybe not, since it's you. Perhaps make an alt and try it.

If your intention was to promote other threads for charitable causes, here's a thought. As a very old adage states, you get far more flies with honey than vinegar. Your presentation of "that's all I was trying to say" smacks of dishonest attention whoring.

Twice Banned:Good for you. How does it feel to out do Biden in just a few hours?

Personally, pretty farking good. Especially when most of us realize this isn't about Biden specifically. It's not for his gain. It's not to make him look better.

It's a fun, grassroots, charity motivated thing that spontaneously erupted from the mind of a fellow farker. Today, instead of sorting derp into the "Troll" and "Disturbed Individual" bins... farkers who spend time on the politics tab did something small that makes the world a better place. Personally, it's stuff like today that makes me fall in love with Fark again... and I've been with the ol' gal for many years (I've got a fark member number lower than the cost of Uncle Joe's Trans Am). So whine all you want, sonny... the rest of us are going to bask in the feeling of doing something that damn near approaches performance art but helps people.

Twice Banned:nvmac: "But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing." Matt 6:3

This is according to his tax return.

Got it. But that doesn't mean that's all he ever gives. Only what he took the time to PROVE that he gave. Remember the golden rule, over $300.00 must be proven (at least that's what my tax accountant tells me).

I'm not arguing Mr. Biden's charitable nature, only you are. We're having fun by saluting the perception of his down to earth philosophy by giving to charity in honor of that. That is all.

Relax. It's not going to kill you to just let it go.

Or, maybe you're just a troll and think it is funny to get folks spun up.

PallMall:RichieLaw... add some higher-end "Perks" amounts to the Indiegogo. Some folks just like to make sure everyone can see that they gave more than the Fark paupers. (ie Add a $25, $50, $100, $1000, etc).

No need to actually have a Perk, other than bragging rights that they donated so much.

The sad thing about this is that people on here will do threads like this to buy Biden a TA, but will they give to Cancer, AIDS, or any other charity? No. But yes, of course, Biden needs a TA.

another one who needs to RTFT.

How the FARK do you know how many hours, dollars and platelet donations I manage a year anyway?

Or, when you rack up 120+ hours a year for Habitat for Humanity, give generously to the American Cancer Society, Children's Home (time and cash there for me), Red Cross (cash and platelets 3X a month), March of Dimes, Easter Seals (time and money) and the other six or so humanitarian things I do every month, every week, all year for the last 25+ years, and provide PROOF, because I CAN, you can threadshiat with your drivel all you want, Until then STFU and GTFO. I'll give MY goddamn money to anything or anyone I want. If it doesn't meet YOUR tiny penis' needs, well too farkin bad.

I only wish that there would be a camera present when one of Biden's aides comes over to him with a smart phone or an iPad and says, "Have you seen this?". I have a feeling it would be a pretty good reaction.

Let's be honest for a moment here on Fark, not the way Paul Ryan - in his closing debate statement considers "honest" - let's be Joe Biden honest,. The total for charity is now $3,000. I can't hear what you are saying would you please repeat that?

I have no but hurt. I just think it's funny you guys have almost raised as much in a few hours as Biden donates in one year. With over $300k in income.

Then what are you doing here posting? Going to make us all feel guilty for raising money for charity by making a spot of fun about Biden being portrayed as a normal, beer-swilling dude with a Trans Am?

/lighten up francis

No RAISE MONEY! People need it. And Biden needs to be shown up. Then maybe he'll actually donate money himself -- the ¢heap bastard.

Time to get serious here. I'll alert my contacts at Doctors Without Borders. Let's see if we can get Joe Biden to agree for a photo shoot with the Trans Am and the photo will be auctioned at the annual DWB fundraiser. The theme this year is "Transformation."

SacriliciousBeerSwiller:God, the insane teeth-gnashing this is causing from the teabaggers is f*cking AWESOME. And on top of that, they come off as charity-hating assholes to boot.

Just...so...perfect.

/for future reference, freepers, the correct face-saving reaction would have been "yeah, haha, f*ck you, but here's $5 for the charity"//but watching you dig a giant hole of sh*t for yourselves is definitely more entertaining, so carry on

That truly is the best medicine. "F*CK YOUR CHARITY EFFORTS!!!" Uhhh, okay? So you Republicans are against charity?

Any possibility of getting Biden to sign it before the auction? Has this already been suggested? I'd imagine you could get quite a bit more for the charities if he signed the hood (or allowed his signature to be imprinted), or above the door like a race car; something like that.

Cyclometh:mcwehrle: I've FB'd it to all of my local newsagencies on their pages.

And Cyclometh that audio is AWESOME!!!!! This is going to be greater than great!!!!

Thank you, that's incredibly kind of you to say.

It's very sincere, for several reasons:

The work all of you have done today is amazingI got to be a small $10 part of itMy voice sounds much like a 14 year old boy with a severe adenoid issue on any type of recording, so I'm in complete awe of that as well.

Apparently there are people who believe that the "Bird" is going to actually be given to Joe, this was never the case. It was always going to be auctioned to charity.

So, yes, all of the haters that are chiding this donation are actually chiding donating to the Biden Breast Health Initiative, Doctors Without Borders, the Wounded Warrior Project and GLAAD. Pat yourselves on the backs, chumps. You've earned it.

Me too, but at least the Democrats seem to be from earth. That's the difference. I don't mind disagreeing with someone's politics, but when their governance is incomprehensible in terms of making a successful nation... that's just bad news.

But, strangely, this is a threadjack...

/Anyone notice we're nearly a tenth of the way there on the first damn day?//Subby, you are on fire.

sethen320:I just hate the republican/democrat war everyone insists on being a part of. Is independent thought really that complicatothers others?

I like to think of it as a republican/everyone else war... or...more succinctly, a fantasy/reality war. But that's a discussion for another thread. Because today... today is about getting Joe a biatchin' umm... Trans Am.

sethen320:tuxq: This whole thread is farking priceless. It speaks volumes in its imagery. The liberals are willing to waste money on a stupid cause, while the conservatives are going "wtf?"

farking. Priceless.

Why do you assume everyone who is saying wtf is conservative? You do realize there are more than two teams, right?

This is Fark. Criticizing a Democrat or idea that benefits a Democrat automatically makes you a Republican and will elicit a "SO VOTE REPUBLICAN!" response. Apparently they cannot believe some people think for themselves, don't blindly vote for a party and do not think of politics as a sports team.
